			Books For Africa is a charitable project created to bring the joy of reading and literacy to all 
			children in Africa.  
			
			<br/><br/>
			
			Africa remains one of the last frontiers in universal literacy.  The skill of reading and writing
			is the cornerstone of modern education, and if Africa is to join the modern world, its people need
			to know how to read and write. 
			
			<br/><br/>
			
			To go about this, we've created a unique fusion between the teachers in Africa and literate people
			all over the world.  The teachers have the ability to request specific books, from which donors can 
			fulfill by mailing books at no cost directly to those in need.
			
			<br/><br/> 
			
			To participate as a teacher or donor, simply complete the  
			<a href="${createLink(controller:'user', action:'create') }">registration</a> process.  We look forward
			to working with you!
